Default Benny ‘The Kid’ Bray made his return (Summernats)

Benny ‘The Kid’ Bray made his return known by qualifying solidly in the field with a third position 6.056. Ben’s father Victor, six times Australian champion, failed to qualify with a time of 6.270. Normally this would be considered very respectable, however it just wasn’t good enough to make the quickest-ever field in the history of Top Doorslammer in Australia.

================================================== ======

(Sydney, NSW) Alan Dobson, West Australian native and the driver of the Rapisarda Racing Top Fuel dragster recorded the quickest run of his career with a 4.601-second pass.

================================================== ======

Other Group 1 Top Qualifiers include:

Top Fuel: Alan Dobson – 4.601
Top Alcohol: Gary Phillips – 5.674
Top Doorslammer: John Zappia - 6.040
Top Bike: Jay Upton – 6.485
Pro Stock: Andrew Stavroulakis – 7.208
Pro Stock Bike: Daniel Peaty – 7.124

Brett Stevens was on fire all weekend was jumping from topfuel bike to doorslammer to funnycar
Zappia was on song for a 5 sec pass in the semi but melted his injector hat 3/4 track and ran a lazy 6.1
Awesome 2 days of racing
